Re: BRUNNER, Josef, Feldwebel 2/NJG-1

Hi,

the war diary of Brunner's late-war Nachtjagdgeschwader - NJG6 simply records that he was posted missing from a ground attack sortie on the night of 25/26 March 1945, but an ULTRA decrypt of an NJG6 signal from a few days after he was posted missing records: "From NJG6, signed Major Luetje dated 30/3: Fw. Brunner transferred w.i.e. To Stab NJG6. To be sent off to 720 ((Unterslauersbach)) at once." From this it can be assumed that he returned to his unit.

Cheers

Rod
